The
magazine of the Peforming Rights Society recently
interviewed Jeff about the 50th anniversary of Yellow
River. You
can read it here.
It's almost 50 years ago that Yellow
River topped the UK charts for three weeks;
May 30, June 6 and June 13, 1970. The success of
the record enabled Christie to be voted No 1 Group
of the Year. Here's
a recording made for a BBC broadcast.
In 1970, sales of Yellow
River throughout the world were so high it
made CBS
Records the most succssful record company of
the year. 2020 marks the single's 50th anniversary!
Millions of people throughout the world grew up
with the song and even today, Jeff continues to
receive messages from fans who have wonderful memories
associated with listening to the happy, bright tune
as it became part of their lives.
